Uh-huh…It’s more in reference to the terminology.
I don’t have any issue with folks being bi- or pan- or flexible.
But “no one’s 100% straight”, delivered as a flat statement, as fact beyond doubt?
Naah. That’s where I have to disagree.

I remember reading this as a teen in Forum magazine, an article that changed my life. There is no straight, bi, gay, just sexuality. We are all in a spectrum we like what we like. Even though I term myself as straight that's because I'm not interested in sexual activities with men, but I still enjoy porn and seeing a hard cock in action. If I was totally straight I'd feel repulsed at the sight. I guess the one thing that gave me a reason to question my feelings was the first time I encountered images of sexy looking women with cocks having sex with women. Found that somewhat sexy, but not a wish to spend time with them should add.I see sexuality is a spectrum, people can be 100% on either end (Totally straight or totally gay), or varying things throughout the middle. Some people are as changeable as the seasons.
#winnerSexuality isn't something you buy off a shelf in a shop, all nicely packaged and labelled. I have no real definition for myself as I think my sexuality depends on the time, place and person or people I'm with. I do not fit the Bi label, I do not fit the straight label, I'm just me.
Yes!Sexuality isn't something you buy off a shelf in a shop, all nicely packaged and labelled. I have no real definition for myself as I think my sexuality depends on the time, place and person or people I'm with. I do not fit the Bi label, I do not fit the straight label, I'm just me.
I like the term Hetroflexible, no ones 100% straight
I don’t disagree with any of that.Sexuality isn't something you buy off a shelf in a shop, all nicely packaged and labelled. I have no real definition for myself as I think my sexuality depends on the time, place and person or people I'm with. I do not fit the Bi label, I do not fit the straight label, I'm just me.
Do you even see it?
Sometimes it’s clear cut, sometimes not so..
I'm a 'straight up, red blooded male'... whatever that means..
But, I've enjoyed some other things in life.. It is what it is; enjoying the moment.
Do you class and define sexuality within a jar? Do you label and align with that?
Not saying there's anything wrong whatsoever in doing that, but do you see sexuality as a grid for the want of a better word, where one is in one position and maybe yourself in another?
For example, @Pearls doesn't class herself as anything.. she is just herself and that is just her. She is who she is.x
Agreed. It’s about the there and now I suppose for a lot of people.Sexuality isn't something you buy off a shelf in a shop, all nicely packaged and labelled.

Totally. xxI tend to feel people, rather than see them.
(And no, I don’t mean feel them up...unless that’s what ya fancy)
But “feeling” someone in that way bypasses a lot of things, gender, sexuality etc.
No, I don’t define my sexuality. Everyone assumes I’m straight and I don’t contradict them. I find it quite amusing that we don’t have to ‘come out’ as straight.
Definitions, to me, feel restrictive but I can appreciate some of the reasons they might appeal. Figuring out who we are as individuals is a tricky business, labelling and categorising is one way we can try to make sense of it all.
Xxx
Agreed. It’s about the there and now I suppose for a lot of people.

I mean, I can see someone’s photos - be it male or female and think; blimey that’s a stunning photo. Doesn't make me bi, gay.. straight, pan. It is me. I'm seeing something I can appreciate regardless of that persons gender.
As far as identity is concerned, I consider myself as pansexual because I see no gender, only the person at that moment in time. Gender doesn't come into it for me. I see beyond that, past that.
As someone who was very much homophobic, I now see gender was a barrier whereas now I see beyond that. It’s something I don’t quite see as a barrier.
HRH has embraced it and I am further in love with her as a result.
Smushy I know but it's true.
That means you’re easyI think there is too much emphasis on labels nowadays, society says we have to fit into a neat little box on a shelf with a label attached, well that's not for me I'm afraid, I've shed the labels and expectations of society and now just go with the flow, see where the journey take me.
